H Will Not Run

Posted by Bob Rhode on July 20, 2004 at 17:59:33 from (12.221.239.103):

I have a 1946 Farmall H that usually runs like a top. Last week when I was mowing, I hit a large rut that gave the tractor quite a jolt. It then started running very rough (it would hardly run at all). I shut it off within about 20 seconds or so. I now can’t get it started again. It has spark, and good compression in each cylinder. The air intake and exhaust are clear of any obstruction.

After the starter cranks it over a few times, it may sputter once or twice, and gas will start running out of the carburetor. Could the bump I hit somehow have caused a problem in the carburetor? Could it have screwed up the timing somehow? I would appreciate any ideas anyone might have about what I might try next.
